The 2025 PDC World Darts Championship (known for sponsorship reasons as the 2024/25 Paddy Power World Darts Championship) is a professional darts event that will take place at Alexandra Palace in London, England, from 15 December 2024 to 3 January 2025. It will be the 32nd World Darts Championship to be organised by the Professional Darts Corporation.

Luke Humphries is the defending champion, having defeated Luke Littler 7–4 in the 2024 final.[1]

Overview

The 2025 PDC World Darts Championship is the 32nd World Darts Championship organised by the Professional Darts Corporation, and the 18th to be held at Alexandra Palace in London, England. It will take place from 15 December 2024 to 3 January 2025. The championship will feature 96 participants, with the top 32 highest ranked players on the PDC Order of Merit being seeded through to the second round. The 32 qualifiers from the Pro Tour Order of Merit and the 32 other players from various qualifiers start in the first round.[2][3]

Irish gambling company Paddy Power will continue their sponsorship of the event, having agreed a three-year contract with the PDC ahead of the 2024 edition.[4] As part of its promotion of the event, Paddy Power announced 'The Bigger 180' campaign, for which the bookmaker would, as last year, donate £1,000 to charity Prostate Cancer UK for every maximum score of 180 achieved during the tournament, while also introducing a £180,000 bonus for a nine-dart finish if one is hit at the tournament, shared equally between the charity, the player, and a fan in the Alexandra Palace crowd.[5][6]

Going into the event, the previous years' finalists are viewed by bookmakers as the tournament favourites with Luke Littler having won the Premier League,[7][8][9] the World Series Finals,[10] and the Grand Slam of Darts,[11][12] and defending champion Luke Humphries having won the World Matchplay[13][14] and the Players Championship Finals.[15]

Format

All matches will be played as straight in, double out, requiring the players to score 501 points to win a leg, finishing on a double. The matches were played in the set format, with a minimum of three sets required to win a match. The following rules were observed:

  • All sets will be played to the best of five legs in the first round, and also in non-deciding sets of subsequent rounds.
  • In the deciding set of all but the first round, the first player to win at least three legs and be leading by two or more wins the set and the match. If the set reaches a 5–5 tie without a winner, it will be decided by a sudden-death leg with no throw for the bull.
Round Best of (sets) First to (sets)
First & Second 5 3
Third & Fourth 7 4
Quarter-finals 9 5
Semi-finals 11 6
Final 13 7

Ranking

The rankings on the PDC Order of Merit are calculated on a two-year basis. Players who participated in the 2023 PDC World Darts Championship are defending their prize money from that event on their ranking. At the end of the tournament, the PDC Order of Merit prize money from that event will be deleted from their ranking. After the tournament, the top 64 in the PDC Order of Merit will receive a one-year extension on their tour card. Players in the final year of their tour card, or that do not hold a tour card for the 2024 season, who finish the tournament outside the top 64 lose their tour card, unless players inside the top 64 resign their tour card, which Steve Beaton is expected to do.[16]

Prize money

The total prize pool for the tournament is expected to remain at £2.5 million in total for the seventh year in a row.[2][3] Tournament sponsors Paddy Power have pledged a £60,000 bonus for a nine-dart finish hit during the tournament to each of the player, Prostate Cancer UK, and a fan in the Alexandra Palace crowd during the match it was hit.[5][6]

The reigning 2024 PDC World Champion, World Matchplay and Players Championship Finals champion, and the UK Open, and World Grand Prix runner-up Luke Humphries is top of the two-year PDC Order of Merit and number one seed going into the tournament.

Two players who were runners-up in PDC majors in 2024 qualified via the Pro Tour, Jermaine Wattimena at the 2024 European Championship and Martin Lukeman at the Grand Slam.[18]

Scutt and Plaisier also qualified for the 2024 WDF World Championship but withdrew in order to play at the Alexandra Palace.[20]

Fallon Sherrock, the only woman to have won a match at the PDC World Darts Championship, and Noa-Lynn van Leuven qualified from the 2024 PDC Women's Series, with Van Leuven set to be the first transgender competitor to play at the event. As with the previous edition, no player will be eligible to compete in the 2025 PDC World Championship had they played at the 2024 WDF World Darts Championship which will conclude a week earlier. Beau Greaves, the winner of the 2024 Women's World Matchplay, qualified but opted to play the WDF event.[22][23]

The final places were awarded by a qualifier for non-qualified PDC Tour Card holders, with Rhys Griffin, Jeffrey de Zwaan, Dylan Slevin and Matt Campbell progressing through the qualifier.[24][25]

Rashad Sweeting will become the first player from the Bahamas to play at the PDC World Championship after sealing his qualification through the Championship Darts Latin America and Caribbean Order of Merit, while Stefan Bellmont will become the first Swiss player to play at the PDC World Championship.[26]

List of qualifiers

  1. ^ Dom Taylor, who was originally 17th on the Pro Tour list, was suspended by the PDC, following the failure of a drugs test.[27] Robert Owen was his replacement as the highest ranked Pro Tour player not yet qualified. He was treated as an International qualifier in the draw due to Jeffrey de Graaf's Pro Tour ranking.[18]
  2. ^ De Graaf was ranked in the top 32 on the Pro Tour list, so was treated as a ProTour qualifier in the draw.[18]
  3. ^ Greaves chose to play the 2024 WDF World Darts Championship[35] following a ruling by the PDC which did not allow players to compete in both World Championships in the same year.[36]
